Gianluigi Buffon was thrilled with Juventus' performance after they crushed Chelsea 3-0.

The Bianconeri outclassed the Londoners, and are now in pole position to qualify from the group along with Shakhtar Donetsk.

“It’s wonderful, like many other victories with Juve, but when you give such a convincing performance – in tactical, physical, psychological terms – it’s a great sign for Juve and for Italy,” said Buffon.

“Some had doubts on us, but playing like this I think we cast those aside. We have our certainties and know that we still have to qualify. I hope we can do that."
